Finished the 1st pair.1st set

Not a stellar success, one turned out lopsided and I grabbed the wrong needles to knit up its brother... and did not notice till I was doing the final bind off.

Fortunately, these little mistakes are hidden in the final product. I just let one felt longer than the other and it's all the same. Or at least close enough for me.

They took longer than I

They took longer than I expected to felt, but I have some shoe size issues (Fred Flinstone "F" Width hooves) to contend with, so I dont know that that will affect everyone. I actually made a larger size than the pattern suggested and over felted.

They feel great, and i love the not too fuzzy texture.
